Nabeul holidays: when to go and how to get there

Like the rest of Tunisia, the spring and autumn months are the most pleasant times to take your holidays in Nabeul, as the summer months can be very hot. With this in mind, opt for May or September when booking your flights. A hat and long-sleeve shirt is recommended to protect against the sun and long skirts and trousers will help you blend in more with the locals. To access Nabeul, you can fly into the main airport in Tunisia, which is called Tunis. Airport transfers arranged by your chosen accommodation or a taxi will bring you to the town. Tunisia's time zone is GMT +1.

Nabeul tourist attraction highlights

Nabeul contains several markets, with the Nabeul Market and the Camel Market being the best ones to visit, due to the range of items on sale. You will find mainly pottery and ornamental products at both. There is also the option of taking a horse and carriage ride around the town or making like a local and trying out camel riding. For the more thrill-seeking holiday-maker, there is quad biking.

Your Nabeul holidays really wouldn't be complete without a trip to a functioning ceramic factory to see how the exquisite bowls, plates and other items are made. The Berber tour will also teach you more about the traditional peoples' way of life. Another popular tourist activity is the pirate boat trip, which features an authentic pirate ship. This excursion will allow you to view Tunisia's stunning and varied coastline from the sea.
